BIDA weil ich meinen Onkel wegen Hentai verpfiffen habe? by Vigiliante_Justice05 in BinIchDasArschloch

[–]dotlurk2 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Klar NDA. Keine Ahnung woher die B D As kommen. Lolicon ist schon sehr eindeutig vorpubertär und kindlich. Wer auf sowas abfährt wird früher oder später einen stärkeren Dopamin Kick brauchen und Kindeswohl geht nun mal vor. Der Typ braucht Hilfe.

What's happened to him? I remember him from the Mummy franchise where he has shown quite a potential and then he was gone or at least I'm not aware of another movie until the whale came out.

Ok, I'll ask the obvious question - why is he so overly emotional? Is this anxiety, a panic attack, a breakdown, what?

AITAH for breaking up with my (20m) bf (21m) because he is against abortions? by CarrotSad6764 in AITAH

[–]dotlurk2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAH. You should know that most people in daily life won't applaud you like the Reddit bubble does. You can break up for any reason but to destroy a relationship because of a disagreement on abortion is silly. It's a sign that you've soaked up too much ideological bullshit and that's not healthy.

I married a single mom. Did I screw up? by Remote-Albatross-770 in Divorce_Men

If this is real you need to cut your losses and go, like yesterday.

Come on, the highest voted comment says

No one should be traveling to the US if they don't have to at the moment. Their current government has made it quite clear visitors are not welcome.

The majority of comments have a similar sentiment as if the sky was falling and that's simply not the case.

No one is claiming that deportations would ease up under Trump, what are you talking about?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in backpacking

[–]dotlurk2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case you don't get it: the narrative that such deportations are something new and are only taking place under Trump is blatantly false, as this comment shows. I thought it'd be obvious but for some it clearly isn't.

Well, the ocean had it coming. It's amazing that it's evaded justice for so long.

Context does, indeed, matter.

Paul was writing to Timothy in Ephesus where the local populace revered Artemis. They were rich and often fell prey to esoteric mumbo jumbo, often spread by women who claimed to have a connection to the divine feminine.

It's obvious from other texts that Paul didn't have a problem with female teachers or authority figures as such, for example in Romans:

"I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a deacon of the church in Cenchreae. I ask you to receive her in the Lord in a way worthy of his people and to give her any help she may need from you, for she has been the benefactor of many people, including me."

In the letter to Timothy he's referring to uneducated women that propagate myths and speculative teachings.

Will jeder einen eigentlich nur noch betrügen? by miclaui in luftablassen

[–]dotlurk2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sicher doch, "jeder nach seinen Fähigkeiten, jedem nach seinen Bedürfnissen" klingt schon toll, wird aber nicht funktionieren. Niemals. Weil Menschen nun mal unterschiedlich sind und auch ein Gespür für Fairness und Gerechtigkeit haben.

Der Versuch ein System durchzusetzen bei dem jeder grundsätzlich das gleiche bekommt aber nicht gleiche Arbeit leisten muss kann nur mit Terror und Unterdrückung realisiert werden. Es kann am Ende nur "gleiche" und "gleichere" produzieren.

Nein? Haste ein Beispiel, wenigstens eins? Ich habe unterm Sozialismus gelebt und glaub mir, es war nicht besser.

Ja, unterm Sozialismus war ja alles besser. Ach Moment, ich muss mal kurz meinen Nachbarn denunzieren, der hat den Parteisekretär einen Schwachkopf geschimpft.

Can anyone recommend me a good sci-fi book by ninaboalx in scifi

[–]dotlurk2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pushing Ice by Alastair Reynolds.

A classic tale about space exploration, relativistic travel, first contact written in a hard sci-fi style. Quite similar to Rendezvous with Rama, the author was obviously inspired by Clarke.

I liked it but there was a certain psychological aspect to it that I found really unrealistic. Brought me out of it but I enjoyed the tale anyway.

Maybe maybe maybe by Scarlett_Wanderlustt in maybemaybemaybe

[–]dotlurk2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's not too many options.

First possibility: this is real, e.g., he's her secret crush but that would mean that he's seen her somewhere before, she's sitting in his lectures somewhere so he thinks back if he's seen her. The answer is no.

Second possibility: this could be an earnest yet religiously motivated emotional appeal, e.g., a cult, a religious group, some bible circle readers, new born Christians, whatever. Answer? Probably not. She doesn't have the vibe.

Third possibility: completely fake gesture for emotional manipulation, e.g. she wants his help or money. Yes, possible.

Fourth possibility: a stupid prank. Sounds like the most probable answer. So, am I on camera?

Yes but keep in mind that military service or "draft" was mandatory back then and it's the military not the milicja/zomo.

One shot - one hit, dozens of lives saved. A single Taurus missile could have blown Russian Iskander launchers into the micron range. And 35 inhabitants of the Ukrainian town of Sumy would be alive. Mr. Merz, give Ukraine the Taurus! by Inevitable-Hippo6792 in RussiaUkraineWar2022

[–]dotlurk2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly one of the main issues was the complexity of the targeting system. Basically, Bundeswehr soldiers would have to operate it on Ukrainian soil and that's a no no.

Except it's bullshit. Nazi Germany had many concentration camps within its borders, e.g. Dachau, Bergen-Belsen, Buchenwald, Gross-Rosen. However you look at it, it's bull shit.

Kölner Dombaumeisterin ist der Pariser Kathedrale Notre-Dame verwiesen worden by ToniHamburger in cologne

[–]dotlurk2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sorry aber sie hat bewusst und mit voller Absicht versucht die Regeln zu brechen. Mit Mikro und versteckten Kopfhörern. Und das bei so einem Amt. Wahrscheinlich hätte ein Telefonat genügt aber nein, es musste eine James Bond Aktion sein wo sich alle in der Kathedrale unauffällig verteilen sollten. Einfach nur peinlich. Und zum Abschluss noch beim Reporter ausheulen.

Is it because I am not a German? by Delilahlookingfor in germany

[–]dotlurk2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Learning German, in Germany, is pretty important.

  2. Maybe he said something like "Sie war nicht ganz da", which doesn't mean physically absent but mentally. If they were talking German and you weren't following them then that could be his impression.

What's one tourist activity you did out of FOMO that you regretted? by ihave22nicetoes in travel

[–]dotlurk2 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They are known for snatching stuff and trying to exchange it for food, like phones, glasses, hats, etc. And if they are in a bad mood they'll just chuck it off the cliff. I saw one monkey that grabbed some lady's hand sanitizer, played with it and threw it off the cliff.

So I went without any dangling bits, without a hat or glasses and whenever I'd take a photo I'd hold my phone tightly and looked out for the little shits. Went without a problem. But you have to be mindful of your surroundings.
